Day Three Kraftin’ Kimmie Peeky Peek!

Good morning and welcome to
Day THREE
of our August Krafty Peeks!

If you’ve been with Kraftin’ Kimmie Stamps any amount of time, you know that August is always our Fall/Halloween Release so that you have lots of time to order, receive and create your new goodies for the season!

So today we have an adorable new Halloween stamp set for you by artist Sabrina van Vloten called

SWEET & SPOOKY!

AND check out this scrumptious new coordinating stencil!

It’s called HERE FOR THE CANDY!!!

It’s a set of TWO layering stencils to create this colourful and delicious background! Yummy!

Happy hoppin’ and see YOU tomorrow for our final day of awesome goodies!

Hey hey happy day three! I am using my Copics on Sabrina’s cute little ghosts! Here are the the Copic colors I used and a close up.

I thought it would be fun to the fluorescents to give the little ghosts a glow and it turned out pretty fun. Here is how the card turned out.

Hope you are having fun hopping around today and finding loads of inspiration.

Have a Happy Colorful Day!

One more care from my new floral set released in June! I am playing with the lily of the valley stamp and now I have all four of the floral options covered. Here are the Copic colors that I used.

Here is the close up of the coloring. The best part of this particular image is the flowers are very simple. Even though they are smaller the white, round shapes make it easy for quick coloring. You will also notice I am using Copic on watercolor paper. I love doing this but some heads up of you give it a try, watercolor paper tends to bleed more than your standard tight card stock we use for Copic coloring and it also is made to absorb liquid so it will suck way more ink out of your marker. BUT it blends like butter!

And here is my little card. You should have seen me scrambling to pack a few papers and goodies to craft in Barrow (where we are landed this month) So as always keeping it simple.

Thank you as always for stopping by and excusing me for my tardiness. Someday I will get my act together. Hugs to you all.

Have a Happy Colorful Day!

Happy Krafting!

I am putting a second layer on my Fruity Fun stamps here in Kenya! One of the other mediums I brought for our art classes is colored pencils! So I used the scholastic grade Prisma Colors to add a simple layer on top of the water color base. Here are the results!

It is an easy combination and you can keep the colors pretty simple for some fun results. Thank you so much continuing to hop by my little spot as I zip about the world! Hope you have time for a little creative shopping.

Have a Happy Colorful Day!
